"What a pleasure working with Ragsdale Home Services. They responded very quickly, when I reached out to request a quote. Forrest responded timely to all my questions and a quick turn around as I changed and revamped my design. Forrest and his team worked diligently to complete my project and were always on the job early and finished in the timeframe promised. Very professional. My deck turned out even better than I could have imagined. Friends and family love it. I would absolutely recommend this company! What a pleasure to work with these craftsmen."

"Wonderful experience with NC Deck and Railing. From the first evaluation to the completion of project. Corey Mitchell's building knowledge surpassed our expectations and he was able to salvage, repair and rebuild our 35+ year old deck. He has built a team of trusted craftsmen who understands his high standards and no subcontractors are used. After years of dissatisfaction with various contractors/handy men we felt like we struck gold with when we found NC Deck and Railing."

"LV Building Solutions did a fantastic job building a screened in porch on my deck. I couldn’t be happier! Benito provided options and was creative in making this project the best end result for me. He was easy to communicate with and was professional, timely and his price was fair. I would highly recommend him and would absolutely use him again!"

"Absolutely amazing job. Sam was here when he said he would be, stayed til job was done, did an exceptional job. I had major holes from mollies, screws and some damage from med cabinet install and fan install and Sam covered them all and you can't even tell that there was anything there. My wife came home and thought the ceiling had been so bad that Sam re drywalled it. She couldn't believe he made it look brand new. Sam is the best painter I've ever worked with and I would not hesitate to hire him again."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

One of the most common house framing basics for decades has been using wood for the framing work. However, some framing contractors now suggest using steel frames. Steel is lightweight, resistant to fire, and resistant to moisture, all of which are areas where wood framing could cause problems. However, steel framing is more expensive than wood and limits your ability to insulate the home.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include:

  • The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes.

  • You notice cracks, holes, or rotting.

  • You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed.

  • You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

It's possible to turn your carport into a living space, but there are additional factors to address over turning it into a garage. HVAC, plumbing, and electricity won't be optional, and you'll need finished flooring, drywall, trim work, and legal ceiling height, for starters. Also, keep in mind that living space conversions may require upgrading the foundation underneath, and the permits might be more expensive as well.
